Hey everyone, I'm "restoring" my S which has unfortunately sat outside for years without moving / being started. I'm starting with the rear knuckles / wheel bearings and putting in the Karcepts hubs, and removing the control arms to do bushings.

The top ball joint nut got stuck to the thread after popping it and kept spinning, I got pissed off and sliced off the threaded part of the ball joint because fuck it, I'm going to replace it right? Well now I'm reading this is a non serviceable part and you need a new UCA? But I also see that hard race has an upper balljoint kit.

So, can I press in new ball joints, or do I need to do that and get them welded? Any input appreciated
